PRESONUS S1 Artist 3.0 [60/307] Chapter 5 studio one reference manual

By default, the last recorded Take is selected. To select any other take, [Right]/[Ctrl]-click on the Audio Event to expose a

list of Takes. Click on any numbered Take to select it. Takes are edited as a single Audio Event, so sizing or splicing any

Take splices all of the Takes contained in the Audio Event.

It is possible to splice an Audio Event that contains multiple Takes, then select a different Take for each splice of the original

Event. For example, if you recorded three Takes for a vocal verse, you could split that Audio Event in between each vocal

phrase, and then, for each phrase, select the best of the three Takes.

Unpack Takes

When two or more Takes exist for an Audio Event, it is possible to unpack the individual takes to separate Events on new

Tracks, new Layers, or existing Layers. To do this, [Right]/[Ctrl]-click on the Event and click on Unpack Takes in the

contextual menu.

Choose Unpack to Tracks to place each Take at the appropriate time on its own new Track. Note that the settings of the

originating Track are not duplicated for the new Tracks.

Choose Unpack Takes to New Layers to place each Take on its own Layer. This is usually done for comping, discussed in

detail in the Comping section of the Editing chapter. Choose Unpack Takes to Existing Layers if you would like to unpack

the Takes to existing Layers.

Set and Shift Loop

Several key commands that you may find helpful when loop recording are available in the Keyboard Shortcuts menu and

by default have no key command assigned.

Set Loop Start and Set Loop End allow you to place the left and right locators at the current playback-cursor position. The

same commands might be used when setting left and right locators for a punch-in using Auto Punch.

Shift Loop and Shift Loop Backwards allow you to move the loop range to the next or previous range of equal time. For

instance, if you have eight bars looped, Shift Loop would move the loop range to the next eight bars.

Instrument Track Recording Modes

There are several modes for recording to an Instrument Track. To switch between these modes, navigate to the View

menu and select Record panel, or press [Shift]+[Alt]+[R] on the keyboard. In the Record panel, you can choose between a

range of recording modes, and access creative recording tools. The following describes each of the Record Panel modes

and functions.
